Hey, I just realized ...

This is unnecessary in India now afaik.  This tweaking of the s10 
parameter was used ages before, to stop the modem from dropping 
carrier every time MTNL sounded a three minute beep in the middle 
of a call.

No particular hassles re that now - most modems connect instantly, 
without tweaking any AT command.  Also, my modem dials out 
without any hassle when I use minicom.  So, the hassle seems to be 
in kppp.

note - 

I don't know enough - this is an informed guess, based on the 
assumption that if a modem with certain default (hardware based) 
settings dials out without a hitch in WinDOZE, it should do the same 
in Linux (after all, Redhat and kppp autodetect parameters ...)
